The prettiest pair in all of poker
The prettiest pair in all of poker

We noticed bracelet winner and longtime pro Blair Rodman mixing it up in a preflop all-in confrontation, with Rodman's {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} trailing badly against Jim Siple's {A-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}.

Siple was poised to double his last 3,700 or so if the rockets held up, when the board ran out {2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{k-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts} he did just that.

On the very next deal Siple watched the player to his right open for 600 from late position, so he decided to apply a little pressure with a three-bet to 1,800.

The other player had just seen Sipleshow down the goods with bullets in the hole, so he respected the reraise and laid down accordingly, telling Siple "my ace-jack's no good here, huh?"

Siple only smiled in response while tabling his {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} with a flourish, cementing his image as a card-rack while scooping his second consecutive pot on the strength of the best hand in Hold'em.
